In contrast

, when they make a wrong decision or choice, their friend is able to correct them, and they will in turn desist from making that wrong choice. Linking Words
For example
, Mr James recounted how he wanted to buy a Honda automobile, but his friend knowing the market value of a Toyota automobile advised him to buy one. He later bought the Toyota car after much argument and he is enjoying the vehicle ever since. So, having buddies disagree with one from time to time keeps the individual in line.
In conclusion, while people may vary in their opinions, I consider having friends that think as one does makes understanding swifter and easier.Linking Words
